Outstanding day in Surabaya with Nico!
From the moment we met our guide & driver Nico, our day in Surabaya felt like an unforgettable adventure, not just a tour. Nico greeted us with such warmth and genuine hospitality — he treated us like friends rather than clients.
Highlights of the day:
• Collecting us promptly from the port, with a big smile and a sign, ready to show us his city.
• Sharing personal stories, family photos and local insights– we felt connected to Surabaya in a way so few visitors get.
• Visiting the Heroes Monument museum where the young student-guides were fantastic, and Nico helped make the history meaningful.
• Exploring Old Town: the scooters, glass-bottle gasoline stations, river-front scenes, street life — all filtered through Nico’s commentary and kindness.
• The traditional clothing photo shoot: the ladies dressed us up, the photos came without extra charge, and Nico patiently sent every image. The street stopped for us (in a fun way)!
• The 1940s Jeep tour at sunset: a thrilling way to end the day, with Nico making sure we captured every moment in time.
• Seeing the contrast between New Town bright lights and Old Town grit, with Nico navigating it all smoothly and safely.
• Nothing felt rushed. Nothing felt “tour-bus cookie cutter”. It was personal, memorable, and rich with local flavor.
• He truly became more than our guide — he became a friend.
If you’re visiting Surabaya and want an experience that goes beyond the surface, pick Nico. Tip generously (we suggested going above the pink bills!) because you’ll leave feeling you received far more value than you paid. We can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Nico, for an extraordinary day.

Exciting and Informative
This was an excellent tour. Our guide was exceptional as he customised our tour based on our interests showing us much of the various cultures and their way of living in Surabaya. We thoroughly enjoyed the jeep ride which was a very interesting way to see some of the sites. I certainly recommend the tour and our guide who I know presented us with the best tour in the available timeframe. Highly recommend.
